¿Cuál es la diferencia entre un auxiliar de enfermería certificado (CNA) y un asistente médico?
Un auxiliar de enfermería certificado (CNA) brinda atención directa al paciente bajo la supervisión de un enfermero registrado (RN) o un enfermero práctico licenciado (LPN), realizando tareas como la toma de signos vitales, el baño, la alimentación, la asistencia en el uso del baño y los traslados seguros, principalmente en residencias de ancianos y hospitales. Un asistente médico trabaja en clínicas y consultorios médicos, apoyando a los profesionales sanitarios con tareas clínicas y administrativas, como la toma de signos vitales, la preparación de pacientes para las salas de consulta, la flebotomía, los electrocardiogramas (ECG), las inyecciones, las pruebas de laboratorio sencillas, la elaboración de historiales clínicos y la programación de citas. Los CNA completan un programa aprobado por el estado y aprueban un examen práctico/escrito para el Registro de Auxiliares de Enfermería, mientras que los asistentes médicos completan un programa y suelen obtener una certificación nacional como CCMA o CMA (no una licencia estatal). Elija CNA si desea brindar atención directa al paciente; elija MA si prefiere trabajar en un entorno ambulatorio con una combinación de tareas clínicas y administrativas.
